1. Sparse Estimation of the Precision Matrix and Plug-In Principle in Linear Discriminant Analysis for Hyperspectral Image Classification
ABSTRACT In this paper, a new method for supervised classification of hyperspectral images is proposed for the case in which the size of the training sample is small. It consists of replacing in the Mahalanobis distance the maximum likelihood estimator of the precision matrix by a sparse estimator. The method is compared with two other existing versions of L

3. A Novel In Silico Monte Carlo Approach to Optimize a PSD Estimation Problem. Generation of Data Fusion Experiment Rules
ABSTRACT This article analyzes the performance of combining information from Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) micrographs with Static Light Scattering (SLS) measurements for retrieving the so-called Particle Size Distribution (PSD) in terms of experimental features. The corresponding data fusion is implemented using a novel Monte Carlo-based method consist

4. Comparison of Clinical Examination and Various Imaging Modalities in the Diagnosis of Head and Neck Cancer
Abstract Introduction Squamous cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (HNSCC) is the most common tumor entity of malignant processes in the head and neck area. Due to the metastasizing behavior of these tumors, the staging is indispensable for the treatment planning and requires imaging techniques, which are sensitive, specific, and as far as possible cost-eff

6. Quantifying individual variation in reaction norms using random regression models fitted through Legendre polynomials: application in eucalyptus breeding
ABSTRACT An accurate, efficient and informative statistical method for analyses of genotype × environment (G × E) interactions is a key requirement for progress in any breeding program. Thus, the objective of this study was to quantify individual variation in reaction norms using random regression models fitted through Legendre polynomials in eucalyptus (E

7. Diagnosis accuracy of PCA3 level in patients with prostate cancer: a systematic review with meta-analysis
ABSTRACT Background: The diagnostic value and suitability of prostate cancer antigen 3 (PCA3) for the detection of prostate cancer (PCa) have been inconsistent in previous studies. Thus, the aim of the present meta-analysis was performed to systematically evaluate the diagnostic value of PCA3 for PCa. Materials and Methods: A meta-analysis was performed to

8. Influence of minimal residual disease by multiparametric flow cytometry at day 15 of induction in risk stratification of children with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia treated at a referral hospital in southern Brazil
ABSTRACT Background: The minimal residual disease (MRD) is the most important prognostic factor for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children. This study aimed to investigate the influence of detecting the MRD by the multiparametric flow cytometry (MFC) at day 15 (D15) of the induction on the analysis of the risk group classifications of the different

9. Efficiency of electricity distribution companies
Abstract Purpose After assessing papers on efficiency, most of the studies available are focused on the analysis of efficiency measures, without providing a deep discussion of the factors that determine efficiency. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of Brazilian electricity distribution companies based on a structural model that enables the identifi
